And my Betzy.

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

Here's my big baby Kitty Hunter. He is a rag doll and this pose shows his personality so well!

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

I have prisoners in my back yard!

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

They are inside dogs though and they all love to cuddle with each other. I have color coordinating pets :re they all have beautiful blue eyes and wonderful long white and brown fur.

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

Oh! They love coffee!

[Allie Mo]

Here's another. This is Obie (Orange Boy, OB) the pumpkin bumpkin. What a terror he is. He's also the loviest.

[Allie Mo]

This one is Pinto. Bringing her into the fold has really calmed the other two down.

[Black Hills Barb]

This is Darcy's Bailey (our grandpuppy).

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

Very cute!!

[Blazin' Cali Rose]

Here is Suzy and I'll have to get some pictures of Toby and Dancer.

[Carolina Chipmunk]

This isn't my cat, but I wish it was. It's my best friend's. Oreo is half rag doll and half persian. I love her more than my own dogs, and my allergies pay for it big time.

[Nellie Blue]

This is so bizarre! I had never heard of a cat breed called Ragdoll now I've seen 2 in just a few months! They look like very cool cats! :)

Breed Profile of a Ragdoll (http://www.cfainc.org/breeds/profiles/ragdoll.html)

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

There is nothing like a Ragdoll cat! Think dog wrapped up in a cat body. He is the most laid back cat I have ever seen. Loves to be spanked and have his tummy rubbed, and tail pulled. He doesn't play much, but when he does he gets distracted so it doesn't last long. He loves to attack the dogs, and give them baths.

[Hugh Damwright]

Here's my Simba.... when I got him

[Hugh Damwright]

And more recently...

[Hugh Damwright]

The other cat, Sparky. This one showed up one day... and never left.

[Hugh Damwright]

And my baby, Cheyenne, the aussie shephard. :)

[Allie Mo]

You all have such beautiful pets!

My heart really belongs to cats. Two of mine, Obie and Gee, are former feral cats that were neutered, had their ears clipped, and released. All were stray adults when I took them in. I've only had one cat in the last 30 years that I selected from a litter and he was the least endearing of them all.

Shawn, that Ragdoll is beautiful as is Oreo. Nellie, thanks for posting the link. I had never heard of the breed either. L-Buck, of course you know it's sexy when a man is a cat person! :w2

Regards,

Allie Mo

[Nellie Blue]

Allie Mo is right LM...I had decided you weren't the right man till you started posting all those kitty cats...now I need to rethink this! :lool :lool

[Pretty Mean Shawme]

I agree! There is nothing quite like a man who likes cats!

If any of you looked at the link Nellie posted you will notice the cats all had white legs, my Hunter was a mis-mark and has brown "chaps" on his front legs, I love his flaw!

Beautiful Aussie Livermush, Whew, good thing I'm married, a man who loves cats and has an Aussie! I need a little sister to introduce you to.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

We have one more, Mittens, a grey and white kitty( AKA The Wild Cat). Bet you can't guess why Mittens. No pics yet, busted camera plus she won't sit still that long.......Buck :cgun :re

[Hugh Damwright]

My sister used to raise himalayans, that's why I wanted Simba. I like the attitude of the persian varieties. I do have pics I could dig out, of cats I used to have or sis had..... would that do me any good ??? Or the pic I had up once of me and the beagle puppy.... c'mon, just give me a reason! muahahaha:w2

[Nellie Blue]

Packard thinks this shouldn't go under this thread because he doesn't feel that he is a pet...he's part of the family. Here he is on vacation, sight-seeing a few years ago....

[Nellie Blue]

Here's my favorite photo of him...he's showing off the Lab side of his bloodlines...

[Four-Eyed Buck]

What? No fish?..........Buck :cgun :grin :D

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Here's one of Susie being her other self, Pet Magnet

[Hugh Damwright]

I gots a lab too!

[Hugh Damwright]

And here is definitely my next cat !

[Nellie's Mom]

Nellie, maybe it's theother way round ... Packard thinks you are his pet :w2

[Nellie Blue]

Mamma...you're so funny....fine post for your first! :lool

LM...where do you find those kinds of kittys?

[Allie Mo]

Here's one of Susie being her other self, Pet Magnet
Hey FEB,

I love it. I'm the Pet Magnet around here. Hubby gets 1/2 the king bed. I share the other half with three cats who hate each other.

Regards,

Allie Mo

[Four-Eyed Buck]

You oughta try it with three dogs and two cats in a queen.....Buck :cgun :re

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

the sound simply wonderful...all except that long hair...I already have to keep up with a golden Retriever... :18

[Lady LaSalle]

Here is my boy, Merlin! He's the girl's giant play toy and my husband's hunting buddy.

[Lady LaSalle]

And here is my 85lb lap dog and hussey, Lola-----she's a pound puppy, 100% dobbi that never had her ears or tail cropped. I like her this way.

[DogWoman]

Galaxy (lab) and Hopa (GSD)

[Ima Schofield]

This is our LUNATIC, he's half Black German Shepard and half Boarder Collie. He 50 pounds of puppy. He's 7 years old and acts like he did at 1. :D

Intelligent stinker, he knows how to open doors and gates if you don't keep them locked. Protector of the little children and Momma. Likes to scare the crap out of the postal carriers. :w2

CJ picked me before Lumpy did. He kept getting out like Houdini and :go coming to my house to play with the kids. That's how Lumpy and I really met.

[Featherblu Slim]

Pilot, Dutch, and Ali

[Featherblu Slim]

Wilma and Grace

[Featherblu Slim]

Trixie - the Queen of the house!

[Featherblu Slim]

Spike - I'd post some pics of Buzz and Jack, our 2 cats, but I can't keep them in the house long enough - they're usually in the pasture playing with the horses!

[Rev Willy Dunkum]

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a275/willy51/Buffi5-040001.jpg

This is our late Buffi, the way we will always remember her. When our "boys" were growing up, we had hamsters, fish, six birds (nanday conure, parakeets, lovebird and cockatiels) and our one Buffi. We are now down to the one original cockatiel we started with and he's @ 17 years old.

[Bluestocking]

This is m=one of my favorite photos of my Aussie, Spot. He's almost 6 now:

[Dakota Diamond Deb]

Allie Mo I had to look twice at your kitty. Here is my Ralph who looks remarkably like yours. He is a Russian Blue and although the picture doesn't show it, he has the most beautiful green eyes and double plush fur.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y3/Debbie0517/Ralph2thumbnail.jpg

[Dakota Diamond Deb]

And here is another picture of Ralph :)
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y3/Debbie0517/yawning.jpg

[Diamond Deb Goldvein]

Here is Belle Starr Goldvein, SASS # 49988 shaking hands with one of her many friends at the range. She is an extremely spoiled member of our family and has no clue she is a dog. SHH... She has her own wardrobe of scarves that she chooses from, her current favorite is a red one. The one she is wearing is an embroidered scarf that matched the shirts we had on that day. If we load the guns and she doesn't get to go she pouts for days.

Diamond Deb

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Diamond Deb, Ralph looks a little demanding. He's marked an awful lot like our Mittens, who we don't have a pic of at the moment. Susie( also known as the cat lady) rescued Mittens from an unfortunate situation and has been Mommy's kitten ever since. She goes outside when Mittens is awake and she'll sit at the door or window and yowl until Susie comes back in. It sounds an awful lot like Moooooooom, mom. Mittens is also known as our wild cat, she's a real character..........Buck :cgun :re :lool

[Nellie Blue]

Packard got a little scared after he saw the photo of Ralph! :lool

He's a cutie!

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Nellie, notice the pill bottle there behind him? Maybe he was taken his medicine..........Buck :re :cgun

[Nellie Blue]

Maybe the meds were to control those fits! :rofl

Hey, LM...I found me a kitty too! This is what we do to computers that misbehave!!! {{Take note, Alley server!}}

[Iron Ed]

Okay, first post... And y'all just had to ask about my Fuzzy Boys. ;-)
Here are pics of Chanur and Clueless Morgan. I rescued them when they were about 3 weeks old. They're about 6 years old now and their biography is on my web page. (www.intrex.net/econen)
Iron Ed

[Tornado Alli]

Iron Ed: Toooo Funny!!!! You have very pretty babies!!

Welcome to the Alley!

[Carolina Chipmunk]

Here are pics of Chanur and Clueless Morgan.
Thanks for more pics of your cats! This is about as close as I will ever come to seeing them I'll wager since they hide from everybody! I just love cats! (Don't tell Chihuahua Floyd I said that!)

[Kitty Phann]

Welcome to the alley, Iron Ed. When I saw Chanur I thought it was mine. They have similar markings and I rescued her too.

[Allie Mo]

Allie Mo I had to look twice at your kitty. Here is my Ralph who looks remarkably like yours. He is a Russian Blue and although the picture doesn't show it, he has the most beautiful green eyes and double plush fur.

Hi DD-Deb,

Ralph is a beauty.

Allie

[Prussian Blue]

Well here's my gang... left to right Mickey, Milo and Lucy

Cheers

PB

[Iron Ed]

Thanks for more pics of your cats! This is about as close as I will ever come to seeing them I'll wager since they hide from everybody! I just love cats! (Don't tell Chihuahua Floyd I said that!)

Howdy Princess Tri... uh.. CFK! :-)
Shucks.. All ya had ta do was ask! I've got -lots- of pictures.... ;-) There's even one of my previous herd on my website.
You might actually see Morgan some day. He's a lot braver than he used to be. You just have to hang around and talk quietly until he gets tooo curious. :-) Chanur on the other hand is probably a lost cause.ll

[Iron Ed]

[QUOTE=Prussian Blue]Well here's my gang... left to right Mickey, Milo and Lucy

Howdy PB,
Mickey looks like my Chanur. Does he have a bit of orange in his tummy fur?
Milo looks like my cousin when he was a kid. (Most narrow-faced, orage tabbies remind me of him. Especially kittens.)
Friend of mine has a cat named 'Lucy Fur'. :-) I forgot the color though.

[Iron Ed]

[QUOTE=Kitty Phann]Welcome to the alley, Iron Ed. When I saw Chanur I thought it was mine. They have similar markings and I rescued her too.

Thankee kindly, Ma'am.
Chanur and C.Morgan are brother barn cats I rescued from a farm in Kentucky. Owner said they likely wouldn't live more than a couple of weeks there. He didn't even know he had kittens around. Vet said they were likely about 3 weeks old when I got them. Fed them goats' milk from a bottle for the first couple of weeks I had 'em.
Lookin' for'ard to yer kitty pics. :-)

[Iron Ed]

Iron Ed: Toooo Funny!!!! You have very pretty babies!!

Welcome to the Alley!

Thanks TA,
SOME folks don't seem to think so. ;-) :-) :-) Chihuahua Floyd wants the recipe. Chihuahua Floyd's Kid on the other hand... :-)
Actually I often refer to them as "Aunt Fannie's babies". Mom started that because I was visiting Mom & Great-Aunt Fannie when I got them and AF is the one who bought the bottles for me to feed them with.
Iron Ed - cat herder

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Iron Ed, herdin' cats is a hard thankless job as they can be pretty cantakerous..............Buck :re :whip :pony

[Angel Outlaw]

great pics!!! I will see if'n I can get the horses and goats all together for a group photo :rofl I may have better luck with the birds and dogs, tho the jack russel may eat the bird.

Anyone want a German/Australian shephard???? almost 2 y/o. Black with tan german shephard markings - free to a good home. :w2

[Cinnamon Teal]

Here is a picture of our sweet, but very spoiled dog. She's almost 12 now but most think she's a puppy. Acts like it some times too! Her name is Star.

[Garnet Rose]

Reminds me of the cat-herding commercial...

[Iron Ed]

per Garnet Rose...
>>Reminds me of the cat-herding commercial...

And you were wondering where I got the line?? :-)

[Carolina Chipmunk]

I purr, therefore I am
Wondered how long it would be before that was on here! :)

[Ruthless Renee]

I had to jump in and add my favorite picture of Oscar the Watch Cat. When I was pregnant with Rachael, he would follow me around just waiting for me to sit down so he could get up close to my belly. The day we brought her home from the hospital we put her on a blanket on the floor. Oscar sniffed her over and then laid down next to her. He was obviously a proud Papa. We are lucky he chose to let us live with him.

[Nevada Skye]

Here is our white with brown spots Boxer Molly. Her ears and tail are natural. We were lucky enough to find her at the local Boxer Rescue, she has been a real addition to our lives the past four years! Part time cat herder, full time love sponge.

[Allie Mo]

This post disappeared...I'm resurrecting it.

[Goldie]

Here's my only baby girl, Roxie!

[Nellie Blue]

Packard says "She's kinda cute!" :noe

[Goldie]

:lool You know, when I first saw a picture of him, I thought 'Wow he reminds me of Roxie!' He's very cute!

[Nellie Blue]

He's half lab....:w2

[Shoot Straight Kate]

Some of you know him....he is often seen at SASS matches. This is my English Bulldog,named Bullie.
http://www.lasergraphic.net/themes/custom/images/body/bullie2.jpg

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Kate, he is just too cute!

[Angel Outlaw]

CUTE!!! My big dogs name is Bullet we call him Bully, I will have to take some pics for ya'll, of the dumbest dog I know! and my little Jack Russel Terror. (he really is a good dog, no terror to him, unless someone rings the doorbell on TV, no one told him we don't have a doorbell)

[Allie Mo]

Hey Kate!

He's pretty cute, for a dog. ;) Love the pose.

Regards,

Allie Mo

Brother sent me this. He's the family cat owner . . .

[Four-Eyed Buck]

An amendment for giving dogs pills, put it in a small blob of hamburg. Where'd it go????????:re :noe

[Blazin' Cali Rose]

This is the latest addition to our family. My girls don't know Mister belongs to them yet. Although they've been grooming on him and lvoing him and being led around on him, they think Mister belongs to our local horse trainer, Sharon.

I just took this picture yesterday and will print it out and hang it on the Christmas tree Christmas morning.:tban Mister is a 11.1 hand strawberry roan Welsh/Paint cross. He is 8 yrs old and although a bit spookier than I'd like, he's a good boy. I can't wait until my girls know he's theirs.

Cali

[Goldie]

What a fantastic Christmas surprise! You're girls are lucky to have a mommy like you!:99

[DogWoman]

The first one is our grandson and German Shepherd (Hopa Suka).

The second one is our really cool cat. He was found wandering the neighborhood as a young kitten. No one knew where he was from so he ended up with us. You can hear him purr across the room. He has so much personality.

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Oh Cali, you made me cry! How wonderful!! I asked for a pony every year for Christmas when I was a little girl, but have yet to get one. I guess it would help if I had somewhere to keep one, huh?

[Blazin' Cali Rose]

The girls were soooo very excited to find out that Mister was their very own pony. I printed a picture of him with bows and ribbons in his mane then wrote on it... Hi, My name is Mister and I am yours. Gillian, my 8 yr old read it, looked at me then read it again just to be sure before she got the idea. I'm posting a picture of her when she finally realized what the picture and note meant. Her lil sister, Dakota was tearing into the box witht he saddle in it at the time. lol

We went down today and spent nearly 5 hours with Mister and Suzy. Mister was a gentleman with the girls all being led around on him and his new saddle fit fine.

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Shoot Straight Kate...OMG I have this huge mushy soft place in my heart for Bullies I get down right silly about them...what a doll!!!

Dog woman that is the prettiest cat!! and to think she was wandering all lonesome!

Calli ok you are OFFICIALY the COOLEST mom of all time! There is just nothing like being able to give a child a horse!!! I hope we can give Emily her long desired dream horse some day!!

[Lizzie Marie]

The look on your daughters face says it all.....that was awesome....

[Nellie Blue]

That's the best Christmas present!!!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

That is a great picture, Cali! Wow, what a super Christams for your family.

[Chihuahua Floyd]

I want a pony next.
CF

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Ohhh me too CF me too!!!
A lovely paint please!!

[Carolina Chipmunk]

CF's mentioned her a few times, but this is a picture of my new baby. Her name is Tilly and she is a husky mix.

***whisper mode on*** don't tell my dad, but I think he REALLY likes my dog ***whisper mode off***

[Chihuahua Floyd]

Forget whisper mode, at least Tilly is a real dog and not a chihuahuahuahua.
Chipmunk is holding her like a baby being burped and laughing while I type.
She is a husky/samoyed cross. Anybody know how large she might get? She is almost big enough for her feet now.

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Dolly got a new "monkey" for Christmas!!!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

And she loves it!! This monkey gets the "Dolly Shake" and it is so funny!!!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

She shakes this monkey back and forth, and just growls...it is hilarious. :rofl

[Lizzie Marie]

That almost looks like a monkey with a duck bill...:tban

[Kid Sopris]

Like the dog would know the difference! LOL :lool

[Nellie Blue]

Oh Chipmunk! Tilly is too cute! How the heck did you get her to stay in the stocking long enough for a picture?

[Wallaby Jack]

"Forget whisper mode, at least Tilly is a real dog and not a chihuahuahuahua.
Chipmunk is holding her like a baby being burped and laughing while I type.

I think maybe you should got a sled on lay-by......
.. you may have a use for one soon ;)


Hi Miss Chipmunk ...:kiss


:wallaby:wallaby

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

That almost looks like a monkey with a duck bill...:tban
Is it my fault you've never seen a mallard monkey? They're quite popular doncha know? If you don't believe me, just walk down the doggie toy aisle at Wal-Mart. :rofl :rofl

[Carolina Chipmunk]

Oh Chipmunk! Tilly is too cute! How the heck did you get her to stay in the stocking long enough for a picture?

Very calm dog and a VERY large stocking. I had to zoom in on the picture a bit and it took out alot. The original has the entire fireplace behind it and all of our stockings hanging up.

Tilly really likes to talk alot...I guess she is a normal girl in THAT respect.

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Her coat seems rather smooth for a husky/samoed? They are not large dogs about knee high or so, they can get heavy if overfed into adulthood.(hubbie from AK...people with likings for silly fuzzy/wolfish doddgies)

Calm is good we like calm!! She is very pretty chipmunk...I think your dad likes her too!:kiss

[Lady Fleur]

She sure is a pretty baby!!! Sadly no doggies here just a school of fishies
Horner(my maiden name? my 7 yr old decided) cruella deville(a black and white spotted gold fish) sucker?,silver and more I cannot remember. And a tan and white dwarf hampster named celestine(my nick name?long but funny story) with red eyes (anyone in california want her) the girls are afraid of her...

Yes mommy has been religated to cleanning and feeding.

We did have shitzu named snickers He was a jumper and muddy all of the time. Who hated sleeping any where but cold concrete all year( we gave him a very warm plush bed in a house) and pooed on my daughter on the way home from my hubbys aunts house 1 hour away. She was going to put him to sleep:( so we placed him in a home with a active 9yearold boy!
He is much happier now!

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Hamsters only live about 3 years or so....(grin)

Greeneyed (what likes most all animals, but dont DO rodents in the house!) Gypsy

[Goldie]

Argh! I know what you mean about the dwarf hamster! I had one a few years back (his name was Wheezer) that you couldn't even put you hand in the cage to feed without getting bitten. I had to wear leather gloves.:( I gave him to my childless older brother who had a Boa...

[Kid Sopris]

Shawme, I could tell that cat was a male just by the way he was sitting! :lool

[Carolina Chipmunk]

Greeneyed (what likes most all animals, but dont DO rodents in the house!) Gypsy
I have a friend who said she had a pair of...some kind of larger rodent...that her mom (a veteranarian!!) THOUGHT were both girls...they got out of their cage one day and started repopulating in the house, and it got so bad that her parents had to call the exterminator. Her and her sister were so heartbroken that their beloved pets were being killed!

[Goldie]

You'd be surprised how often the whole "we thought they were the same sex" thing happens. We bought three "female" rabbits and ended up with thirty-eight.

[Lady Fleur]

Haa My husband was the same way the people of Petco sold him "2 females" on 2 diffrent days.
Well he said if any thing happens seperate them if they cannot get along... And he left to go shopping.
Well the little brown one was trying to give our celestine holly he**... Well his buns got sent back to petco so fast as celestine bit him up all over. especially in his armpit!
Lesson learned BOYS NO MEANS NO!

[Narvous]

This is one of my dogs:)

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Oh, what a cutie!

[Nellie Blue]

Adorable! Blue Heeler?

[Narvous]

Some more of my famley forgive the spelling.

[Macon McLeod O'Smoke]

Get ready to say AAAWWWW!!!!

Here are pictures of my dachshund, Dumbledore. The wife, who is a Harry Potter fan, named him.

Here he is when we first got him at 12 weeks.

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

OH MY GAWD!!! You just scored more big points! Alli, Kate and I all love dachshund! Here is mine and Alli's babies...Dolly and Lily. Lily is on the left and she is Alli's, Dolly is on the right and she is mine. They are littermates and we love them so very much.

[Macon McLeod O'Smoke]

Here is another one of Dumbledore doing what dachshunds do naturally, bury themselves underneath their blankets and toys and sleep all day.

[Nellie Blue]

Oh, my goodness...does that mean Packard is part Dachshund? :rofl Except he peeks out to watch the Disney Channel.

[Lady Fleur]

HA HA they do it just like our Mr peanut My little brother a italian greyhound (yes he does have a accent)

[Hugh Damwright]

Found this at my feet this morning after about 10 minutes on the computer when I got in from work.... :) When I bought this cat, the ad in the paper read : black persian kitten, 8 wks old, papers, brilliant copper eyes, raised underfoot. The last part is DEFINITELY him~~

[Aspen Filly]

I love her to death-she has such a great personality!

[Aspen Filly]

I did it!!!! I got my first pic up on the Alley - just one question.......how do you make them bigger????

[Aspen Filly]

This was when we first got her-she is a little character!

[Aspen Filly]

I guess I got BIG down pat! (Just not sure how I did it???:( )

[Aspen Filly]

xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

[Nellie Blue]

Such a lady! :kiss She looks sweet!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Oh my gosh, Filly, she is gorgeous!

[DogWoman]

That's one nice looking dog.

[Drydock]

I would like to post a remembrance to my Dalmation, Sir Osage Jacob Luetkemeyer, called Jake. Born august 2nd, 1991, we put him down this last saturday, the 11th. He'd stopped eating, very arthritic, rapidly losing weight.

One of those dogs who always seemed to wear a laughing expression, calm, intelligent, yet ever playful. Loved to run, caught any number of squirrels under his own catch and release program. A month ago he proudly tottered up to me, depositing a box turtle at my feet, the only thing he could still catch.

Farewell. May you warm the feet of angels, and gambol cross heavens fields.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Rainbow</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Bridge</st1:placetype></st1:place>.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Rainbow</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Bridge</st1:placetype></st1:place> together.... <o:p></o:p>

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Drydock, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your buddy. Prayers for comfort being sent your way.

[Goldie]

My condolences too, Drydock. I know it's hard losing a member of the family. Lots of prayers here too.

[BayouBlessings]

Allie Mo asked that I post some pictures of my granddog Koukla. She is a Chinese Crested.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f84/skaranas/kouklapresents.jpg


http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f84/skaranas/kouklahappymomshome.jpg

I will work on getting photos of my pets up at some point. I have 3 chihuahuas, 4 cats, 2 pigs, a Molucan Cockatoo, Sun Conure, African Grey Parrot and a white-faced Capuchin monkey.

I use to have 13 cats, but as the years have gone by so have they..... I also use to have two rescue horses. I fattened them up and found a great home for them on 30 acres in the country.

[Allie Mo]

Hey BB, your Granddog is adorable.

Dear Drydock, I am so sorry for your loss. They are so like family.

Regards,

Allie Mo

[BayouBlessings]

Allie, Koukla is "different" in every way! The perfect dog for an opera diva. My daughter is a mezzo soprano and diva all the way!

http://smilies.sofrayt.com/fsc/sunglasses.gif

[Goldie]

Ooooo does she perform? Just Opera or music theater too? I planned on applying to Julliard before I met my hubby and decided I wanted a family more. I'm a soprano too, not a mezzo though. I miss it terribly! Sewing satisfies the bug nicely though.

[BayouBlessings]

Goldie, she is in grad school in Phoenix, AZ. She'll graduate this May. She does perform. She is blessed to have been chosen to attend the Music Academy of the West (http://www.musicacademy.org/) this summer. In a couple of weeks she will be auditioning in Boston at the Boston Academy of Opera. The Lord has blessed her with a beautiful and powerful voice.

Her web-site: Daveda Karanas (http://www.davedakaranas.com)

She got married almost 3 years ago to a very supportive loving husband. They don't have kids yet, so now is the time to pursue her dream. Not to say you can't fulfill your dream after kids, it just takes more creativity and adjustments.

~BayouB

[Goldie]

Charliej is wonderfully supportive too. He's offered to let me go back to school and offered to pay for lessons again many many times. I can't fathom taking any time away from my boys or my critters, so I totally understand her deciding to wait, I wouldn't want to have half of either one either!:) When my boys are older and are more interested in being social than playing with mommy, I'll be right back in the spotlight though.
Congratulations on raising such a talented daughter! I can tell you're very proud, and your granddog is very cute!

[Allie Mo]

Hi Folks,

I took this photo today in downtown Sacramento. It was 6 blocks from the Capitol.

They were BIG ens!

Regards,

Allie

[Goldie]

Pea Hens? or turkies? They are big!

[BayouBlessings]

Goldie, I am very proud of her because she almost let her dream go. She flunked out of college twice. I told her if she wanted to go to school she would have to pay for it herself. She worked for a year at a job she hated and put herself back through a semester and proved to us she was NOW serious. We put her through the rest of college but told her if she wanted to pursue grad school that she would have to do that on her own.... and she did. She paid for auditioning at different schools etc. and was able to go to ASU with a teaching job & stipen (sp?). I am very proud and happy that she is able to do what she loves. Life is toooo short and precious to be stuck doing something you don't at least like to do.

Allie, those look like turkeys! How funny!!

~BayouB

[Chihuahua Floyd]

Goldie,
I think Allie Mo ment them was pigons.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Thems BIG pidgeons, CF. Don't let'em poop on yer car. That IS a flock of wild turkeys, we've got'em around here, but we're semi-rural.............Buck:sailor :scared :lool

[Allie Mo]

Hi Folks,

That was a flock of wild turkeys.

I called Animal Control and told them that someone needed to get them out of downtown before they got hurt or caused a wreck.

The individual said, we already came out and chased them out of the street once. I said they needed to be transported to the country. She said, we aren't able to do that.

I wonder what they think their job is...:(

Regards,

Allie Mo

[Kitty Phann]

Allie Mo,

That would mean turkeys would be chasing turkeys!:lool

[Macon McLeod O'Smoke]

Just get me an extra large can of cranberry sauce and a couple of boxes of stuffing, and I could take care of the turkey problem.

[Chihuahua Floyd]

Macon,
Had that thought uesterday onthe way to the shoot in Lenoir. Wild turkey on the shoulder of the interstate. Totally ignoring traffic.

[Wallaby Jack]

If they is only 6 blocks from tha Capitol..... maybe they is politicians out on a fact finding excursion..........


:wallaby

[Chihuahua Floyd]

Even folks on the other end of the world know that American politicians are Turkeys!

[Allie Mo]

" Fact finding"...:lool

We went to Fiddletown Saturday. When we arrived, we already had visitors. Jess says they're regulars.

We haven't fenced our property. So, it's open on most of two sides. We like having it that way because of things like this. :)

Regards,

Allie

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

Allie Mo, I know what you mean. This is the view I get some days from my living room window.

[Aspen Filly]

This is from our camera where we are building in the mountains!

[Aspen Filly]

and another!

[Aspen Filly]

and.......

[Aspen Filly]

more........this is part of our bachelor herd of bulls that run on our land!!!

[Allie Mo]

Cool photos Fanny and Filly!

I've got to learn how to use the zoom on my camera. Those babys wouldn't let me any closer.

Regards,

Allie

[Aspen Filly]

Don't fret- my photos were taken with an infrared movement sensitive camera that's cabled onto an aspen tree by our water hole. These boys wouldn't let us get that close either.

[Kid Sopris]

Short Story......1996 hunting elk in the Mountains above the Crystal River Valley, Shown here from the live web cab:http://webcam.sopris.net/ in the trees in the foreground. We called in some elk, hoping to get a big bull in. Instead me and my partner got seperated and I sat down in the bottom of a draw and decided to eat lunch. PBJ, of course. When the elk stampeded right towards me. A cow with her calf game with three feet of me and I froze she starred at me, and didnt flinch. I was wearing scent so I didn't smell like human, but the PBJ was of interest to her and her calf. Finally the stare down wore off, and I offered the elk my sandwhich. All Hell broke loose, she took off with calf in tow and nearly stampeded by partner, whose only remark was....."YOU DON'T EAT ANYMORE ON HUNTING TRIPS!" Wish I had a camera instead of the sandwhich, because I don't know who had the most surprised look, me, the elk or my partner! :lool

[DogWoman]

Oh Sopris, you brought back three fantastic memories. One was hunting.

I went up on the mountain one morning by myself. It was pouring when I got to my stand area so I decided to 'camp out' under a large Douglas Fir and therefore, keep a bit drier.

This fir was about 5 feet up hill from the deer trail I was watching. It was pitch black and I heard some deer coming down the trail. I sat there dead still.

It became apparent that these deer were not on the trail but walking 5 FEET UPHILL OF THAT TRAIL. In other words, straight to me.

The main thought that came to mind was how these deer were going to act when they saw that the spot they wanted to occupy was already taken.

The first deer, a doe, came within about 3 feet of me and stopped dead. She looked at me, I looked at her, and we were frozen in time for about 30 seconds. Then she reacted.

If this were a cartoon, her head would have gone back through her shoulders and out her backside, so to speak. She whirled around so fast that the other deer had no clue she was headed back at them at top speed. She hit the deer behind her so hard that she knocked it off it's feet. They were entangled, rolling down the hill while trying to get up and run at the same time.

I knew there were at least two more deer behind the two that were entangled because they bolted around above me and stopped stomping and snorting and raising a ruckus.

When the two downed does finally got up, they also took off about 50 yards, stopped and stomped and snorted for at least 10 minutes.

I did not see a deer for the rest of the day in that area. I'm guessing all that fuss they raised alerted every deer within a mile!

[DogWoman]

Story #2...

In the summer, we kept our horses in the lower pasture. It had a stream running through it and it was always cooler than our upper pasture.

I'd go down every evening to grain her and give her a quick brushout. She loved to run down to the stream area and 'hide' in the high underbrush, wait till I walked by and jump out.

This one evening, as I was walking down towards the stream area, I heard something crashing behind me. I thought it was the horse and quick hid in the high brush on the side of the trail, thinking to turn the tide on her for a change.

As I stood there, a buck emerged in the trail. He stopped within arm's reach of me. I waited and he began to pick at the brush and browse. For whatever reason, he did not realize I was there.

I reached out and touched his rump.

Did you know that a deer can jump rather high STRAIGHT up? After his hooves hit the ground, he flew up the trail. Now....remember the horse?

They met...

Horse and deer stood there a second while the buck danced back and forth as if saying, "Come on!!!! We gotta get out of here NOW."

Finally the buck went through the brush and was gone. I was sitting on the ground laughing. The horse walked up to me and nuzzled me seeming to say, "Ok, kid, you had your fun, where's the grain?"

[Nellie Blue]

My mom sent me a new photo...I don't know if it was a photo of the flowers or of Packard! :rofl

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Kid....LMAO.... DO you know Lizzie Marie?? She don't let me eat on shopping trips either....LMAO...thats too funny!

Greeneyed (what remarked once that she didnt relize Alaskin Moose were so big to as she took a photo of one along the road in AK, to her Hubbie who still laughs to tears remembering....his remark was "Yeah you should see an adult!" I was looking at a calf no more than a year old....) Gypsy

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Dog woman... Story #2... Ohhhh Holy Buterballs (a term my two small boys picked up from the Madagascar penguins and are using all the time at the moment)

So anyway... Hubbie walked out of the shower wanted to know what so funny! Ohhhh that was too funny

Greeneyed ( did you know a deer can jump straight up? Bahahah) Gypsy:tban

[Lizzie Marie]

You are going to give me a bad reputation Gypsy....I do too let you eat when we shop, just not constantly....:tban :tban :tban

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

LMAo....same difference... Love you...see you Thursday afternoon!

GG

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Miz Fannie, We get the same type of views from my sis-in-laws bedroom window. The deer come down and raid her bird feeders. When they're on our side of the fence, she could open her window and touch them. We also get raccoons and squirrel, an occassional possum and bunnies. We quit calling them bird feeders, they're now deer feeders. The birds are lucky to get any at all. She's woke up to find a deer looking at her in the window..........Buck:sailor :ss

[Ponderosa Starr]

All of you have such neat pets and interesting stories..

Here is my Aussie - "Shasta" She will be 1 yr old on March 21st.. This was taken with my camera on my cell phone - so it isn't as clear or sharp as I would like.
She was 6 months in this pic.http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid201/pd82c40a15fe95467950798b59d4f7423/effd17d6.jpg



This is a special pic of me when I was helping to get the new Roy Rogers/Dale Evans Musuem ready for it's Grand Opening in Branson in June 2003 ... I had the honor of working in the display to get Trigger, Buttermilk, Trigger jr and Bullet all ready for the big day..

[Kid Sopris]

Thats the most intelligent look I have seen all month! :loolGreat Looking dog!
I need to move so I can have a dog again !:rolleyes:

[Ponderosa Starr]

I know what you mean Kid. I would be lost with out a dog. I had 2 Aussies (littermates and sisters) that I had for amost 14 yrs before one of them passed at age 12 and the other a year later, at almost 14, in 2004.. They were incredible. I was so happy when Shasta came to me in 2005. :yp

[Lady Fleur]

You met trigger!(LOL) Very neat! You must have had a blast!

[Sarah Bernhardt]

Shasta is a beautiful dog, love her coloring. What a great experience to work on such a special display at the Roy Rogers Museum; I remember the one they had in Apple Valley. How did you get so lucky to go to Branson and work on the display?
Sarah B.

[Aspen Filly]

Beautiful dog and fun job in Branson!!!!Dogs are my favorite. Wouldn't give mine up for nothin'!

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Some people have all the luck! Closest I ever got to Trigger was the TV set!.........Buck:rofl :lool :go

Around this ranch the pets are working members of the family. Here's Buddy, my best equine pal under saddle.

There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.

[Drusilla]

Wow P S, our Aussie dogs could be littermates. Laddie is a working Aussie and the other dog is my 83 pound Catahoula Tigger, he's got brindle stripes in the brown spots. Tigger is learning how to work livestock, he's barely 2. Laddie is seven and has the most beautiful pink coloring and ice blue eyes.
I depend on these two furry fourleggers to let me know if there is danger, we live right on the border and have on the average several hundreds of boarder crossers a night on my wash and dirt road to the ranch. Without the dogs it would be very scarey.

[Ponderosa Starr]

Drusilla:
Awesome, picture of you and your gorgeous Black Beauty!! Someday, this is how I want to look. Like a working cowgirl a top a magnificant horse.. Someday I will !!

I love your dogs, especially Laddie.. Of course I am partical to red merles. They are incredibly beautiful.. I used to have a sheltie named Laddie too.. He was a great dog as well.

Awesome pics!!!

[Ponderosa Starr]

There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.


There really is nothing better than the love of a dog!! I have often said, if I could find a man that loved me like my dog does, I would be a very happy lady!!! :wallaby

Sarah B.


I have lived in Apple Valley all of my - well most of my life - since I was 14.. It was a small town then. It afforded the opportunity to come to know some of the Rogers family.. When they moved, I assisted on the last day at the museum in Victorville, and when it came time for the grand opening in Branson, I was able to go a few days ahead and help. I have been 3 times and plan another trip sometime this year. They are a great family and it is an honor to assist them whenever the opportunity arises..

Thank you Sarah for your compliments about my Shasta Baby.. She is an incredible girl, who is full of enery and loads of love. She is a blessing to me..

[Drusilla]

Thanks Ponderosa,
I'm and old hand, 40 years in the saddle riding and training horses. I started out in dressage, at age five. Thank goodness, cause it has saved me lots. Did 25 years of endurance riding too, and just recently retired from that to do reenactment in Tombstone. My horses, dogs and cats are my family now, the kids are gone to college. AND I have a fantastic husband who loves reenactment. :wallaby

[Goldie]

May I introduce Sophie! My new baby! Isn't she adoooorable?!?!?!

[Ponderosa Starr]

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Oh goodness...he is a cutie I see little devil written all over him ( or her I missed that)

Happy potty training !

Greeneyed ( whats in not so happy potty training mode...sigh ...puppies) Gypsy
The cuteness is a survival mechinism I tell you!!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

While reading my emails in the mornings, I always open the blinds of the windows beside my computer desk. This morning, I looked over and this is what was greeting me this morning. Please understand that I couldn't move much, I didn't want to scare them....and these photos were taken thru the window and the screen. There were 6 little visitors this morning.

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

See, this is what happens when they hear me moving around too much.

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

One last look before they are gone.

[BayouBlessings]

What a delight Fannie! I remember a couple of years ago I was sitting at our front reception counter and looked out our large window and there were 6 deer standing in the front yard. I was shocked because it was in the middle of the day! We don't see too many deer anymore due to the advanced civilization in our area.... subdivions.... homes.... people! We use to have deer, coyotes, foxes, racoons and an occassion a wild boar or two. Now, just squirrels. :(

Oh well.... that progress.


~BayouB

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Gona have to try and get my digital up and running again and see if I can get a good pic of our bird feeder raiding deer herd, especially if I can get the ones on our side of the fence.....Buck:99 :ss

[Winston Dawg]

May I introduce Sophie! My new baby! Isn't she adoooorable?!?!?!


Yes extremely adorable!

And is that an accurate pic/ Looks like she got good sized nose on her! That's good! She will breathe better! Looks like she like me gotta grow into her ears!

How big is she?

hug WD

[Goldie]

She's almost nine weeks and I haven't weighed her but I think she's around 3lbs??? Teeeeny tiny! She runs around under my feet and I have to freeze so I don't step on her! She's such a sweet little love bundle! Always cuddling and my boys loooove her! :dc Kids and puppies! Does it get any better? :) :ty

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Moment of clarity...

My sweet Holly is the exact smae shade as our furniture...LOL its going to be one of those days! (silliness!)

Greeneyed (goodness remember last year? she was just a little thing?!)

[Nellie Blue]

A dog to match your furniture! :lool :lool How's that cute little thing you adopted a while back? Is he all better now?

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

Well when you can get him to sit still, we do that by telling Emily to sit down then wikket comes running to sit on his favorite seat ( any lap available!)

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

he is usually too busy snuggling to pose for photos

[Greeneyed Gypsy]

But sometimes you can get his attention...He and Holly are never far from each other, he is a very happy little dog, with three kids to play with all day, We are home much of the time so he is completely spoiled.

[Nellie Blue]

Awwwww! Cute as ever!

[Carolina Chipmunk]

Holly reminds me alot of my best friend's dog Katie. Both of your dogs are so cute, Gypsy!

[Clancy]

Ok, after all the beautiful dog pictures i thought i would post this... This is my old dog (now deceased) Her name was Hooch and she was my baby before i had my son. She is a rottweiler cross shepherd and she was the most placest of dogs.

As you can see she loved water, she was always in it, so bath times were never a problem... This a favourite pic i dug out to share of Hooch and Jordy sharing the pool together...

[Nellie Blue]

Awww! Sweet!

[Fannie Kikinshoot]

With Bulls Head being gone all week, his time at home is precious to everyone. Can Can Dolly is no exception. She really misses her Daddy Dawg, and when he is home on Saturday mornings, enjoying his coffe she is always in his lap. This morning, she decided she needed a little more snuggling and security. She nuzzled her way right under his house coat and curled up, with her head on his chest. Of course, as soon as I took the picture, she decided to be a ham! LOL!! Isn't this the sweetest picture?

[Allie Mo]

Fannie,

That is an adorable photo of Dolly! I see BHB really loves having his photo taken in the morning. :lool

I can remember Cuddles being that small, used to take her with us tucked inside our coats. Her little nose peeking out over the zippers.......Buck:cgun

They're SOOO cute when they're little, why do they have to get big? (and big is relative in this case!)

I'm not sure that's an actual weiner dog (I just realized I can't spell dachsund, dachshund... whatever,
too lazy to look it up) on the bun. Never saw one that tiny. or I should say young... :) Jady

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Jady, when they're born, they about the size of a large mouse or gerbil. Used to raise them, when you get a bunch together it's not a pack, it's a GANG!:eek:
That's definately a dachsy. Ours is close to 20lbs. at her winter weight and is considered a miniature/standard( kinda the midsize model) Buck

[Chihuahua Floyd]

Buck,
You should see a new born Chihuahua, talk about little, get 4 of em on that bun.
Loose one in a shirt pocket.

Oh wow! I love B/T's! I don't live a life to make one really happy but they are so cool. We had Plotts as a kid.

I'm now into the Labrador Retriever phase of life. The GSD we have is giving me a run for my money!

[Clancy]

Yesterday we picked up our new family addition. We have been waiting for a litter to be born. My son Jordy chose her and named her.

Her name is "Dusty" and she is a Shih Tzu x Bichon. As you can see from the scales she is only 2.2lbs (1kg). She is 7 weeks old. She has my son and husband wrapped around her finger,,

Oh the fun of having a puppy again....:tap but she is gorgeous

[DogWoman]

Some of us love to travel with our pets. Did you ever wonder what our escapades look like through their eyes? There are three things we usually consider on the road: where we will eat, where we will sleep, and of course, where we will seek relief.

This is our trip to Idaho several years ago through the eyes of Florie, a guide dog puppy in training. Sweet Violet, be sure to take notes! You will see a number of places from home!

One of our stops was at the Trangle T restaurant. It is definitey Idaho at it's finest. The food was good and very reasonably priced. During the course of our repast, the ladies just had to make a visit to the 'powder room'.

[DogWoman]

But wait! There's more! Let me use Florie's words. They say it the best.

"Along the way we hit this rest area in Malad. Mom said she had to see Evel Knievel's jump site over the Snake River Canyon. She didn't fool me, she HAD to see this bathroom. Notice the tile floors? I was still too little to test the blue water. "

[DogWoman]

"These nice people left the lights on for us at Motel 6. Nice shower eh? Mom prefers glass doors but I can get in with her with the shower curtain! "

"My all time favorite had to be these. Mom wasn't too sure about them fitting in our house but wouldn't you love these in your place?"

[DogWoman]

"You know how us pups have to go 'au fresco'? Why not people?"

[DogWoman]

"I just had to find out if this one worked. Looks like a good one for our place! Just a little lower and this porcelain water bow will be perfect."

So much for Florie's bathroom tour of Idaho. I'll bet you'll never look at travelling with your pet the same way again.

Stay tuned. Hop(less)a will be travelling in May to Goblin Valley and Temple Mountain, Utah.

I'd be afraid to have a little guy like that! The goofy GSD would step on him and crush the little guy. If he got outside, the resident ermine would be looking for a gourmet lunch!

Sooooo cute!!!!
